Daily morning drive time show to return fire in ‘War on Guns’
Hosted by long-time magazine/Internet columnist and gun rights activist David Codrea, “The War on Guns” will give Scottsdale/Greater Phoenix metro-area listeners regular updates and analyses on the stories of the day, using a mix of breaking headlines, commentary and interviews. Emerging legislative threats will be explored, as well as setbacks and victories in the continuing struggle to guard against Second Amendment infringements.

Faceoff
U.S. Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., has set up a faceoff with Barack Obama's U.S. Justice Department over the agency's refusal to respond to demands from Congress for information about federal Operation Fast and Furious that apparently maneuvered dangerous weapons into the hands of Mexican drug lords. [Read]
With color commentary from...uh...well, you'll know him when you hear him.
Thought I posted this yesterday and just found it still in "drafts."
Close, But No Cigar
An arsenal found in Mexico included at least five assault rifles that U.S authorities trace to a federal operation gone badly awry, according to government documents.I was guilty of using "gone awry" myself early on.
The discovery appears to confirm for the first time fears cited by Republican lawmakers that a Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives operation called Fast and Furious failed to stop guns from ending up with drug gangs in Mexico. [More]
And it's not really that they "failed to stop" the guns, is it?
Second ‘Gunwalker’ hearing to ‘examine tragic consequences of Fast and Furious'
“The reckless decisions of ATF and Justice Department officials in Operation Fast and Furious have devastated lives and put fear into communities on both sides of the border,” Committee Chairman Darrell Issa (R-CA) explained. “By exploring this Justice Department sanctioned program, we can better understand the flawed process surrounding the genesis and implementation of an operation that put guns into the hands of criminals.” [More]
I just got this alert from the Oversight Committee press secretary via email, and it certainly warranted an immediate reaction via a second Gun Rights Examiner column today.
Hopefully, you'll agree this news warrants spreading, and will do so by sharing the link.
Police continue to dispel myth they are ‘only ones’ trusted enough to bear arms
